Nakhwajang (Pyrography)
National Intangible Cultural Heritage, Republic of Korea Nakhwajang refers to the art of decorating paper, wood, or leather by burning a drawing (typically a landscape or birds and flowers) on the surface with a heated iron. It is also used to refer to the masters of the art. The origins of pyrography in Korea can be found in a relevant entry (entitled "Nakhwa byeonjeungseol") in the 19th-century encyclopedia Oju yeonmun jangjeon sango compiled by the late-Joseon scholar Yi Gyu-gyeong (1788–1863). Since the early 19th century, the technique of pyrography has been transmitted mainly in the Imsil area of Jeollabuk-do Province. Korean pyrography is primarily based on traditional Korean painting. It borrows a range of "texture strokes" (junbeop) and other brush and ink techniques from ink wash painting. However, all these traditional expressive methods are executed with a heated iron rather than a brush. Proficiency in manipulating the heated iron is critical to the execution of nakhwajang.

Naqqoshlik (ornament-making) art
Naqqoshlik is drawing an ornament - a pattern built on rhythmic alternation and a combination of geometric or graphic elements, performed by means of painting, drawing, sculpture or embroidery. Uzbek national patterns have their own names, going back in history. Traditional Uzbek ornament is found in decorative art embroideries, in wood carvings, in paintings on clay and ceramics, on Uzbek fabrics, on buildings. At the heart of the ornament is a picture of simple things. For example, knives are designed to protect, a flowering garden is a symbol of fertility and agriculture. Each flower carries information: a scarlet poppy - the image of an innocent girl, a tulip - a symbol of purity, a rose - peace and beauty, wildflowers - a young man. Often, a different meaning was embedded in the image of flowers. For example, they believed that they carried healing power and health. The ornament creates a vector image in which a magical meaning is laid, reflecting the course of human life. This is an oriental vector style with geometric patterns. Geometric patterns have abstract forms: - zigzag lines - circles - polyhedra - stars - ornamental motifs - meander - human figures - stylized inscriptions. Ethnic patterns are folklore images, folk motifs in which a creative union of religion and culture is concluded. They carry a semantic and ritual load.
